A Fund 80 is a vote by the voters to bypass the school revenue caps to pay for things such as recreation programming or homework club, things that are not traditionally considered part of the educational mission.

What is your opinion on this?

The last time a Fund 80 proposal was presented it was for a recreation district and the vote was at the J.C. McKenna School and it went down to defeat. Should the school present this proposal for $30,000 for a Fund 80?

You make the call.
